I spoke to SeaPoint Ventures’ Tom Huseby about the startup several months ago — at which time TTMI was still in stealth mode. Huseby — the former CEO of Metawave Communications — said at the time that the company was selling a technology to wireless carriers that helped them move data from the cell site to the network.

“All of a sudden data requirements are putting a huge strain on providers,” he said.

A spokesman for the company declined to disclose the number of employees or total financing. As a result of the investment, Rally Capital’s Dennis Weibling — former president of Craig McCaw’s Eagle River Investments — will join the board.

TTMI is led by former McCaw Cellular general counsel Mark Hamilton — who worked with wireless veteran John Stanton to “knit together all of the spectrum for McCaw,” according to Huseby.

Does that mean Stanton — who I speculated about in this column – is involved in TTMI? No word yet on that one.

But another former McCaw veteran — Ignition’s Steve Hooper – today was named chairman of TTMI.

UPDATE: TTMI, which employs nine people and has raised just over $10 million, has already signed up undisclosed carriers for the service, according to Hamilton. Asked whether T-Mobile USA and Western Wireless founder John Stanton was involved in the company, both Hamilton and Huseby declined to comment.
